You have already theorised that is where the problem lies!
Unless you have looked at the units, it IS a theory! Not that you would know
Sure, they want the money.
So if you had an amp suffering from thermal runaway, you just shove a fan in

Has anyone seen this before and is it a common fault.
You just told us it was a common fault!
(Sorry I have no idea of the fix)
Thanks for the informative response.
It may not be common at all.That was the reason i was posting.Just
because

have 3 of them with the same symptoms means nothing.
If you have no idea of the fix what was the point of posting
I guess your top posting shows that you are new, so for your info a
called a smiley, and it usually indicates humour.
MrT.
I could agree with some of that and I guess that's why there aren't many LGOn Mon, 21 Mar 2005 23:59:04 +1100, "Mr.T" <MrT@home> wrote:

Thanks guys for the help.Those heatsinks might do the trick and or the
fan.
MrT if you have nothing to constructivley contribute then piss off you
dickhead.
Anyone with half a brain would find out what the problem really is before
just throwing a fan in the box.
I guess that doesn't include you, since you'd rather abuse people than do
a
little research for yourself.
MrT.
I would agree with Phil on trying the fan in this situation, and have
a strong feeling that this is very likely to solve the OP's problems.
computer fans are very cheap now - so its not much of a risk to try.
VCD, and now DVD processor ICS in my opinion run WAY too hot for
comfort, and I cant recall many that had ANY heatsinking on them.
Have seen too many problems (especially intermittents that are hard to
trace) in the past caused by heat. Lowering their temperature lowered
faults dramatically.
The device may be running within spec when in the design labs
"average room temperature" test, (ie: ideal conditions), but put the
thing in the average consumers closed tv cabinet along with other
gear, and/or in a home without air conditioning in summer - and the
device soon is running over spec - and faults are happening
Bean counters certainly don't help in these situations, and with many
of these "ultra cheap supermarket" consumer electronics, I would
imagine trimming costs even by the .001 cent where it can be done
would be vital to profitabilty
Another problem could easily occur over time as dust slowly blocks or
restricts the units air ventilation slots, or even accumulates on the
IC itself as well - creating an insulation layer that makes proper
ventilation impossible. in hotter parts of Australia in summer - it
would only multiply the problems
-------------
if possible, proper heatsinking is preferred rather than a fan - but
in many cases like PC processors that develop huge amounts of heat (or
other devices with multiple heat sources scattered over a PCB) it
isn't always practical, and many times more of a pain to fit into a
product after it has been designed and built
